Road back to HS PLO

4b pot 110bb ish to start co vs btn. he pots flop at 1 spr. i know at .8 spr its a call with 2 bdfd i wonder how much it changes at 1 spr vs a range of only aces since i dont think he bluffs enuf pre

6k left to go on the regrind from being down 33k. also some of the losses were on bol and the tracker wasnt working ( i depo'd 5k ran it up to 10 then lost the 10) so ya probs like 4k of that untracked but oh well

some aggression that went wrong:

this hand is just really ****ing bad absolutely massive punt i should always check river. 3b pot he b 1/2 flop snap pots turn and xc river with jt78. idk i probably can jam turn too its 3 handed and his timing felt bluffy but given action i can just check i honetsly just thought hed fold range here in game but very bad assumption .

i xr flop barrel turn and jam river. its a punt 1 ) its a fish that isnt capable of folding trips and 2 ) just bad combo (he called with aa56)

last one: i dont have the hh screenshot but basically btn vs sb 3b 130bb ish. flop ak5 rb he cb 1/2 i call with kqt8 BDFD. turn is a q he x i b 1/2 (230 into 460) he calls. river 1 spr i jam he actually slowrolls me with ajjt lol . idk these might not be good but i tend to take the agro approach when i have good blockers + weak showdown + spots hard to find bluffs in. like id have to bluff ajj ig which i do have.

there are obv a lot of hands that right im just posting my punts for review - and im working on taking them out of my game once i do my wr will skyrocket.

herse one hand that went right:

i open in MP, CO calls and BB calls, flop checks around. turn checks to the CO who bets 1/2 BB calls and i raise CO folds and BB tank calls. river i jam he folds pretty fast. this is also i guy i marked as a station who called me earlier in a similar spot and was right, so i like going for these spots continuously and get in their head, especially in spots where theyre capped. it worked this time

with that being said- im out of the hole made the 33k back 😃

not a call even spr 0.8 vs only aces range

so close! but its bed time :(

Holy **** that’s sick gj

How many hands is that?

60k hands on bovada this month ish, 200 hours, 4-tabling. just started adding some more tables recently

Congrats, super impressive results and volume. How do you play so much without getting burnt out? My brain gets fried after a 2hour session lol

you can go back a couple of posts, when i got back to poker after my break playing for longer than 2h genuinely hurt. I kind of forced myself to just sit and endure the pain until it became a habit. Also just the competitiveness and losing motivates me, once i started losing a little there was a fire in me that compelled me to make it back and improve every day. It's really just dedication and consistency. Also making money is nice obv

Im still running good but im genuinely playing peak poker rn really nice to be back to good form I fixed up a bunch of my leaks and noticed improvements in results almost instantly. It took a lot of reflecting and honestly just reviewing hands. I review like 40 hands a day, during the session i note the hand number and input them to pt4 the next day. Also studying hard off-table as well just drilling a bunch of MW spots, esp 3b spots. and some deeper spots as well

Anyways,
we did it 😃

Nice

impressive stuff! think we played a bit at aria this summer 😀

haha no way? dm me your instagram curious to see who you are! Vegas was a sunrun for me

funny hand. i dont like how on chico when im typing somewhere it auto bets for me. thats basically what happened i was on youtube looking up some **** and when i clicked enter, it auto 3bet me on chico. anyways we got it all, the guy called me a fish and asked if i was high. (he had aj9t with 3 clubs kek)

anyways small update - i adopted a cat. i was fostering a cat named magenta bc i love cats and the day i had to give her back i couldnt do it i literally got depressed. so now shes mine forever. so that's taken up a bunch of my time. still getting my hours in just a lot less and not much to report pretty stagnant days still on the upwards trend though. also BTC is at 98k which is insane

Someone in this thread messaged me about coaching earlier this week. He's a reg that's been breakeven for a while so looking forward to work with him. I definetly want to incorporate some form of coaching into my routine when I'm not playing- so if anyone is interested DM me. More for advanced players that want to push their edge, spot their leaks, and identify population tendencies

100K in one month, nice! GG! Can we see an updated graph for your journey? I love me some graph porn 😀

Since i started again (10/17)

YTD

Also was finally able to export my hands from my old broken computer to my new one, so now i have my full years results (and other years).

But here are this years results by month. You can tell i was really going through it in my jan-march stretch, mostly bc i was apt hopping in nyc.

Sick results well played. What are your thoughts on your red line tanking? Do you even care? Curious as to how you have a 47% wwsf but tanking redline. I’ve been making a lot of adjustments to my game in the last few months to where my redline is breakevenish/slightly losing with a similar wwsf to yours. My red line was tanking before that and after my adjustments, in a lot of spots it honestly does feel like I’m simply trading blue line for a red line so not even sure it matters that much.

prob from not vb enough in theory (bc they dont call enough in certain thin spots where they either have air or nuts), and from not bluffing enough in spots they overcall. i try to pick my spots well value betting thin in spots they overcall and bluffing in spots theyll over fold. thats what im guessing

I've unfortunately been going through a lot of health issues with my neck. It's The point where every morning I wake up with a stiff neck and I can't feel my pinky anymore because I compressed my ulnar nerve .
5 months ago I moved to my uncles and was working from his office. I bought a chair because the chair in his office didn't have neck support but he wouldn't let me switch it out because it wasn't professional enough even though he had no workers in his office. So from May to June when I was grinding 12 hour days I basically was in a chair with no neck support. One morning I woke up with an extremely stiff neck. I honestly didn't think much of it I just thought it would go away but it hurt pretty bad and I could barely move it. Anyways I've had this pain for the last five months and it's progressively gotten pretty bad I did some PT over the summer but it was short lived I think I have some nerve problem from bad ergonomics and sitting in the chair for too long. I ordered a bunch of **** to try to correct my posture but honestly a lot of nights I could barely sleep I just started Get a chiropractor for it and after one session it helps a little bit so I'm hoping to get this result soon . Basically didn't have any insurance that's why I couldn't see any PT in the US since they charged like $500 a session which is insane but I finally On my own insurance it was kind of a pain to do. Anyone has any tips for this sort of stuff let me know I have a standing desk and a bunch of wrist support and keyboard support items i've even bought like 15 pillows but none of them are comfortable No matter what I do during the day I wake up with a stiff neck in the morning ( I do A lot of stretches)

I am a former professional fighter and my neck is destroyed from it so I can relate, try neck traction, you can order inexpensive device to your home.

You could do much worst than having a long conversation with ChatGPT about your condition and try to narrow down root cause and ask it to create a plan for you to fix it. It's probably 80% as good as going to a physio and 0% of the cost. Alternatively it might just be cheaper to go to mexico or somewhere with decent health care, things like physiotherapists are really cheap. However a lot of time they are also 80% as good as good sports physio in US/Canada at 10% the cost. It just depends if you need physical treatment done in person. $500/session is insane, it's between 100-150 in Canada, with a discount on exchange rate. I generally buy into the line of the belief that having all these **** to support you just end up making your body weak and doesn't fix the root cause.

Has 100k month

LMFAOOOOO give and take bro some people would chop off their pinky for 100k!

Lmao I ordered one too
